I'm not adverse to doing a livestream on YouTube, or a Skype call, etc.

OK, I'm fine with opening it up, too, and we should probably so so, that may give more input. There have been lots of fixes posted already, and I haven't checked whether that solves everything (this would be a bit counter to helping in a natural way), so I don't know whether there's actually anything left to do. For either case, I've put up a page which will contain updates on the events here[1].
Public live streaming is new to me and so far I've evaded any public records of my video and voice, maybe that's pointless since this will become increasingly impossible into the future, but I'm undecided and so far am planning for conference calls that, while open for anyone to join (see [1]), will not make recordings public. I might be swayed. I'm also still not omniscient in the C world (the most glaring is probably that I've never used the GNU autotools!), OTOH I'm yearning for somewhat higher levels of abstraction so my C coding is often untypical, so YMMV if you're after learning standard ways of working in C.
My concern with the current setup is that I am in GMT+10 timezone. This means that some 'livestream' events are not able to be viewed due to work or life commitsments. I will keep an eye on this topic though.
Fair point. I might make an edited version of a recording available, but can't make promises at this time.

I would definitely watch a livestream on YouTube
Is Jitsi OK, too? see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30973570
I think lots of people will be interested, keep us posted if the live streaming really happens!
See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30973570 -- just join the Jitsi session, if that's OK with you (say if not, I'd be wondering why).
Livestream preferred for me, twitch/yt. no skype here.
